Come cruise with us on the Capt. Anderson III for family adventures you are sure to love! The Capt. Anderson III has an enclosed and climate controlled lower deck with viewing windows all the way around, complete with a snack bar, restrooms and an open air viewing deck on the bow. The open upper deck seating area is covered, providing shelter from the elements, while also allowing the perfect place to feel the sea breeze. There are specially constructed side panels making it safe for the whole family to be right at the edge and not miss a thing.
We are also very proud to introduce the boat’s newest surprise for 2013, a built-in 1000 gallon Sea Life Viewing Well on the main deck of the boat! We have transformed the glass bottom portion of the main deck to bring you a unique up way to be up close and personal with a variety of local sea creatures. Don’t be surprised to find a shark or sting ray in there next time you come!
Shell Island & Dolphin Encounter
Join us on this 3 HOUR narrated tour where you can relax as you cruise down Historic Grand Lagoon to St. Andrews Bay. The Capt. Anderson III will take you to a private dock located on an uninhabited and pristine portion of Shell Island that is part of St. Andrew’s State Park, and remain there until everybody is back on board one hour later. Have fun at the beach looking for shells (you can keep any shell as long as it doesn’t have a creature living inside), swimming, and exploring the island, then it’s back on board to go watch the dolphins play. This trip has been a Shell Island family tradition for over 55 years!

Just imagine the excitement when you pull a trawl net aboard to see the aquatic wonders found in Historic St. Andrews Bay, pass around a jelly fish, catch crabs in a trap, observe the aquatic bird life and watch the growing family of nesting ospreys. During the tour, the Captain will provide an educational overview of the native sea life while pointing out historical landmarks of the area.
